Abstract
Existing models to estimate crack spacing and crack width for FRP and steel reinforced concrete elements, including ACI 440.1R-06, Eurocode 2 and Model Code 2010 are discussed and their performance is assessed against the experimental results. Model Code 2010 was found to yield more accurate predictions of the cracking behaviour of the test specimens under both short-term and long-term loading.
